This started out as a personal training ride for a quick sprint from Bridgewater to Mount Lofty and back after work. Over time, a few locals have joined, and it has become a regular ride for a few of us now. The route starts climbing immediately from the Bridgewater CFS through pleasant rural surroundings
Join the Mishmash group for a casual 60km ride with an average speed of about 20-22kmph. The ride heads through the Adelaide Hills and returns to the start for a Coffee.
Every now and then we come across some wicked ride locations. Melrose located in the outskirts of South Australia has trails from Blue to Black Diamond. But as any mountain biker would know, single track is where its at, and the crew at Over The Edge Bike shop can hook you up with over 80kms of singletrack!
We managed to talk the the team at Over The Edge to find out more about this Mountain Biking heaven....
Track Beginner Sessions every Friday, $10-$15. Loan bikes available. Learn the basic track technique or just ride around to get a feel for the bankings. Completely non intimidating environment. All welcome.
This ride starts from Mega Bike, King William Road, HYDE PARK South Australia. Often 100+ riders split into speed limit groups, 30/35/40/45/no limit. The difficulty is only as hard as the group you choose to ride in. Constantly rotating paceline.
